Do you know what Singapore was like in the 1950s to 1980s? Join us as we journey through time and visit our traditional Nanyang coffee roasting factory. Here, you will learn everything about coffee beans – such as the differences between Nanyang coffee and what Starbucks uses, roasting techniques, temperature control, and more. Throughout the process, we'll also let you taste black coffee and local breakfast snacks.
Our next stop will take everyone to another traditional industry - a bread-making factory. In an environment filled with the aroma of fresh bread, you'll have the opportunity to learn the process of making traditional bread from the masters and understand the story behind the insistence on making and selling freshly without adding preservatives.
Lastly, you'll hear the story of a master of paper house construction, understanding how the Chinese use burning paper products as a dedication and expression of respect for ancestors in the afterlife.
If you are interested in Singapore's fading intangible cultural heritage or wish to hear the stories of craftsmen, or if you just want to rediscover a side of Singapore you may not know, then join our itinerary!
